New Zealand Symphony Orchestra: The Happiness Box

What a privilege!  We got to experience an engaging, interactive performance of The Happiness Box by the New Zealand Symphony Orchestra.  The music was a tribute to WW100 commemorations.

What was your favourite part of the performance?
Which instrument would you like to play?
